## Workforce Structure and Contract Design

Most workforce disputes trace back to a decision made years earlier: a role defined loosely, a contract that never said who was responsible for what, a shift pattern nobody checked against the working time rules. Vikram has seen those decisions examined in the Employment Tribunal. He works with organisations before that point, on the structures and documents themselves.

- Staffing models, including outsourced and offshore teams
- Contracts and statements of work with clear responsibilities
- Working time and rest break compliance in the operating model
- Grievance handling and tribunal readiness
